An excellent resource
for studying Melville's Billy Budd:
|
This
website is dedicated to helping students of literature --
at all levels -- better understand Herman Melville's complex
short novel, Billy Budd. [ . . . ] Nothing in this site will
provide definitive answers to the difficult questions which
this text raises, nor will it provide a template for the student
seeking a quick and easy solution to the various problems it
poses. Rather, this site should serve merely to enrich one's
reading of Billy Budd by providing readily more information
than otherwise might be accessible to most students. [ . . .
